  1. Dear Smart142,

     

    Leadwing says you might be able to help me. I'm looking for a few of those yellow clips that hold up the belly pan under the body of my 06 450 cdi. My nearest $tealership is an hour away, and I don't go there very often. Tedder in Brockville

      I can help. I have some at my shop. Can mail them Monday.

      What's your address?

      Cheers!

       Glenn.

  2. Hi, Uncle Glenn

    Have you run across a fuel level display flashing on an off? It's a steady on/off flash..not intermittent.

    I guess it could be the resistors at the back of the instrument panel or a sender connection at the tank. I'm guessing resistors. Any thoughts/advice.

    I would be very grateful for anything you can offer.

      Hi Sandra!

      Sorry, haven't run across that problem before.

  3. It's been 10 years since France!!  Wish we could all go back.............

    Quick question......my Surrey friend bought a pulse cabrio.....is there any way to install an automatic function to a manual transmission?  She has trouble with all the shifting.  Thanks!!  Maria

      Yes, the France trip was an experience I will always remember!

      Thanks for letting me drive the 451!!!

      Your friend should contact Fast Eddie in BC - he could do it but its probably expensive.  In my experience the smarts that are manual shifted last longer.

  4. Hello, 

    This is Stan, I am in Vancouver area.

    I have a 2006 Smart fortwo passion edition, The SAM unit has water damaged circuit. The unit I have has the following markings on it

     

    "SMART 00 11868 V013

                SAM

    Siemens VDO

    5WK4 5090

     

    Question for the experts here:

    1) Do I need to find an exact match or can I swap with another newer or older (2005) SAM?

    2) Is there anyone I can have my keys matched to it, and any programming (CLONING) that is on my unit?

     

    Thanks
